Player Valuation: £70m
Head of pe at the school I worked at 20 years ago, was once a very promising young goalie at Forest Green Rovers, (Richard (Dickie) Maycock) until he broke his neck in a match (i think). Word has it he was destined for the top before the accident. Obviously while recovering from that sobering injury he opted for a safer career.
Even in his 50s when I knew him he was the best keeper I've ever played with in 11 and 5 a side. Such fluid movement, balance, reactions. Also a top first slip when we played cricket.
Also played with / against a young lad called Jamie Redknapp at the park, jumpers for goalposts stuff. He never made it really, although he played for England, Everton never gave him the call.
